I started whistling a happy little tune yesterday when driving home and getting to the bottom of the familiar hill on Burnham Hill. I braced myself, as I often do in mud season, before the pavement ends and the muddy chaos begins, a mere minute from my house. Sometimes it is the longest minute imaginable during this time. Suddenly I realized as I turned the corner and could see down the road, everything looked smooth, the road had been graded! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
